‘House of Cards’ Makes the Terror With New Season 5 Photos, Details

Netflix has been notably quiet on House of Cards Season 5, especially with a May premiere looming (already moved back from Q1). Appetite for political drama is understandably fickle these days, but get a new look at Season 5 with fresh photos and intel on how the Underwood administration will interact with Trump’s.

As to how House of Cards will avoid the landmine of reality’s current political crisis (Season 5 was written before the election), executive producer Melissa James Gibson noted that only select aspects would hit close to home:

Sure, the resonance sometimes feels eerie. But Trump is an outsider who’s trying to blow up the system, and Francis is the opposite … The battlefield for season 5 is the American psyche. That may be one parallel with our real world.
